Enhancement: Enable/disable long-press for 8FACE mk2 (should also be applied to 8FACE, 8FACEmk2, 8FACEx2, Transit, ...)

I had already reported an issue almost identical to this one, but it was a misunderstanding, on my part ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ, of the long-press function. ๐Ÿ˜‰ Unfortunately (for me), under certain circumstances, I've found it can become a problem while performing in a live jam session. ๐Ÿ˜ข

  • Setup used: (see image)
    I mostly use 8FACE mk2 to cycle drum patterns.
    8FACE mk2 slots are triggered by 8 pads of an external MIDI controller.
    Everything mapped with MIDI-CAT.

  • Case scenario:
    When I perform LIVE, using the pads of the MIDI keyboard controller, I inadvertently leave my finger(s) on the pad(s) for more than a second, therefor triggering the "long-press" function and changing the number of "enabled" slots.
    This affects the performance as I only realize after a while that the slots/patterns aren't triggering/changing anymore. ๐Ÿ˜ฑ

  • Requested enhancement:
    Perhaps make a context menu option to enable/disable "long-press" action?

I know I might be the only one that need to disable long-press, but something like this would definitely fix my problem. ๐Ÿ‘

Thank you ๐Ÿ˜„
